Grindhouse Releasing wrote:Grindhouse Releasing is proud to present Umberto Lenzi’s CANNIBAL FEROX in a new 3-disc Blu-ray/CD edition! Scheduled for release May 12, this deluxe set is available now for pre-order exclusively from Diabolik DVD!

Banned in 31 countries, CANNIBAL FEROX assaults your senses as a group of Americans lost in the jungles of Amazonia experience brutal retribution at the hands of blood-crazed cannibals. Shot on location in the savage Amazon wilds of South America, CANNIBAL FEROX is one of the most violent and shocking films ever made. There are at least two dozen scenes of barbaric torture and sadistic cruelty graphically shown. If the presentation of disgusting and repulsive subject matter upsets you, please do not view this film.

SPECIAL FEATURES

– Original UNRATED, UNCENSORED director’s cut

– Spectacular new 2K transfer – scanned from the original camera negative

Cannibal Ferox itself is almost entirely without merit, but the Blu-Ray will be worth a purchase for anyone who doesn't already own the DVD for the commentary alone. Since they were recorded seperately Lenzi and Radice constantly contradict each other, with Lenzi giving an amazingly deluded self-congratulatory commentary while Radice utterly (and correctly) trashes the film, along with the experience of making it. Listening to the two personalities clash against each other is funny enough it almost makes the film watchable.

Including the full soundtrack is a great move as well, as it's easily the best thing about the film and stands up very well on its own.

A limited run of 3,000 copies of the Blu-ray will include the official "I DRINK YOUR BLOOD Horror Hypo" - an actual syringe that fans can use to infect their friends with rabies! Supplies of the Horror Hypo are not expected to last long, so fans should pre-order from DiabolikDVD.com to get the best shot at receiving one!
